#1Prob the hardest desicion of my life. HELP
Posted: 4/23/07 at 10:05pm

Ok im going to NYC this weekend to see Mary Poppins and Curtains, for a school trip. I have been informed that we can go off on our own to try our hands at getting tix to another show. So I have narrowed it down to the following:

Drowsy
110
Legally Blond
Radio Golf
Les Miz


HELP ME CHOOSE!

I'd check out Legally Blonde actually. Les Mis is stupid these days and Drowsy's funny but you may not like the score. I think it'd be fun* to see LB.

I don't know about 110 in the Shade or Radio Golf, but don't see any of those others. Drowsy is great, but it'll tour. Don't get me started on the others.
See something that could use the money. See Grey Gardens. See LoveMusik. I mean, you may not be interested in those, but see something that could use your business. Help a great show stay on.

Friends of mine have seen Love Musik, and I can tell you it dosent interest me, the main reason im leaning towards 110 is because of audra, I need to see her live a least once, and do you think audra will be making many more broadway apperences after 110. I wouldn't even need to decide is Bob was still in Drowsy.

"I mean, you may not be interested in those, but see something that could use your business."

Honestly? You'd suggest someone spending money to come in from out of town further spend money to see a show they're not interested in? I've read a lot of ridiculous things on this board, but that is right up there.

Les Mis! It's my favorite show and it's always worth seeing.

And hello Lea Salonga is in it.


I mean, Denzel Washington? Gun to my head..of course.

I would say either

-110 in the Shade - A quality revival of a quality musical theatre piece starring a modern icon of the musical stage. The 2 you are already seeing we're mixed reveiwed comedies.

-Radio Golf - A quality production of a very important last work by a very important playwrite. Your not seeing any plays right now.

Drowsy, LB, and Les Miz will ALL tour/be seen regionally FOREVER, see one of these productions WHILE YOU CAN!

Is this REALLY the hardest decision of your life? Probably not. That being said:

110 in the Shade is limited...and Audra is amazing. Go see that!! HANDS DOWN!

I honestly thought you were going to ask people here on the choice between dramatic theatre or musical theatre as your college major re: Prob the hardest desicion of my life. HELP

If you are a musical theatre geek, you will enjoy DROWSY very much.

But enjoy yourself with all the three Broadway shows you are going to see!

110

Day of the show, be at Studio 54 when the box office opens and get a student ticket.

110. You'll have other chances to see the other shows. This is a limited run.

I've seen all but Radio Golf, so I can't comment on that, otherwise, i'd say 110 hands down.

Go for 110 in the Shade.

Now I love me some Drowsy, and Beth Leavel is awesometabulous, but you're no longer seeing the entire original cast so there's little reason that you NEED to see it now. OK, so you would be seeing a brand new original cast if you saw Legally Blonde, but...as much as my interest in the show has risen recently, it's just not something you need to see at the moment. And I'm sure you've noticed by now that nobody has said Les Miz. re: Prob the hardest desicion of my life. HELP DEFINITELY one you'll have a chance to see again...and again...and again...in almost identical form later on in life.

I'll admit, I'm not really familiar with Radio Golf, and if people are interested in one play and a lot of musicals I usually tell them to see the play. I'm sure this one is a great bet. But...Audra ain't in Radio Golf. Just remember that.

Have a great trip...I hope you get the chance to see more than one of your choices (I have a similar situation with a quick trip to London this year--my group will be doing a workshop and seeing a play at the Globe which is pretty exciting, but we're pushing like hell to squeeze in a West End show, if only on our own).

DROWSY. It doesn't matter that it's touring - this is your chance to see it with Beth and Danny and they're worth the price all alone!
